请仔细阅读下列材料回答问题中国近代史既是中国沦为半殖民地半封建社会的历史，也是中国追随世界历史潮流，走向近代化的历史。近代以来，先进的中国人站在时代的前列，探索救国救民的真理，经历了从“师夷长技”到变法维新的探索，人们发现温和的改良无法从根本上改变旧制度。于是，人们举起义旗，发动革命，推翻旧王朝，建立了共和国。接着，高举民主、科学大旗，吹响了思想解放的号角。（1）“师夷长技”指的是什么事件？该事件Bedfordshire had its fair share of royal visits from the early stages of the 10th Century onwards and the importance that the county placed on this is evident in the monuments, country houses, churches and any number of other structures that are still present there to this day. Bedford Castle is one of those structures and, although it is nowhere near its former glory today, it is an essential attraction to visit if you really want to grasp what its heritage means to the county!Bedford Castle was built initially as a fortress to help protect Bedfordshire on the south of the River Ouse after the people in the local towns and villages had already been subdued. It was erected in 919 on the orders of King Edward the Elder, although it was destroyed by a Danish invasion years later. This was when it was rebuilt as the castle, of which the ruins exist today!There is a long history behind the castle that involves several kings as a result of the Duke of Bedford being an ardent royalist. Bedford Castle repeatedly offered the kings of England refuge against various storms in the form of onslaughts from abroad and various domestic threats against them, and this is where much of its fame lies, even though the castle itself is no longer there. There are various tours of the ruins that you can take when you visit though and all of the guides are extremely knowledgeable. They will happily tell you tales of the mound and the castle that preceded it.The mound is open to the public all year round and is a proud part of the area’s heritage. It is recommended by the majority of people that visit Bedfordshire because it tells you much about why the county is currently how it is. You can view the river from the mound and the surrounding settlements as well as the remains of the castle, and every moment spent there is worth it so enjoy the history and the very nature of the county itself! 【小题1】What do we know from the first paragraph?A．The royals pay regular visits to BedfordshireB．Bedford Castle represents the heritage of the countyC．Most of the ancient buildings are in use todayD．Bedfordshire had its fair share of royal visits【小题2】The underlined word “initially” in Paragraph 2 probably means _______.A．at firstB．since the beginning C．for one particular purposeD．for a short time【小题3】The kings of England came to Bedford Castle ______.A．to escape from the bad weatherB．to visit the Duke of Bedford C．to enjoy the beauty of natureD．to seek temporary protection【小题4】Why are visitors recommended to visit Bedfordshire? ______A．It reflects the history of the country B．It is the major heritage in that regionC．The ancient castle is well worth visitingD．The castle is still in good condition【小题5】The purpose of writing the text is _______.A．to attract tourists to BedfordshireB．to tell the history of BedfordshireC．to introduce Bedford CastleD．to show where the kings used to go
